Kalarikode or Kalarikodu is a small place nearby to Kottackakom Aranmula of Pathanamthitta,Kerala in India.

Importance

Karicode is one among the cashew processing hubs of Kollam.[1] It was a part of Kilikollur panchayath before. Kilikollur has the maximum number of cashew processing factories in India. When Kollam Municipality was upgraded as city corporation in the year 2000, Karicode also merged with Kollam along with Kilikollur.[2][3] The congested National Highway stretch passing through Karicode is making the place a traffic black-spot in Kollam city. So many accidents happened in Karicode area because of the congested, under developed NH stretch.[4]

Kilikollur railway station is situated in Karicode.

Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited is planning to provide high-speed Wi-Fi hotspot in Karicode, considering the importance of the place as a major educational hub in the state.[5][6]
